Lamarcus Washington, 28, of Chicago had already been in custody for violating his parole on a 2008 drug conviction, since being questioned about the Aug. 13 slaying of 22-year-old Brianna Gardner.
She was found fatally shot in the head about 10 a.m. in a seventh-floor room of the Whitehall Hotel, 105 E. Delaware Pl., just off the Magnificent Mile near the John Hancock Center. At least one guest staying near her room heard what sounded like a gunshot about 3:30 a.m. that day, but police were not notified until hours later when a cleaning crew discovered her body.
Although police could not find the murder weapon, Washington’s cell phone was found in the room when Gardner’s body was discovered.
Gardner was arrested a week earlier in Chicago on a misdemeanor prostitution charge and had prostitution arrests in the past year in Houston and Washington, D.C., according to court records.
Police said Washington was a customer of Gardner's when she was slain.

Look at this Chimpanzee.
Just another loser.
Good for you! I don't know what's up with these guys. Prostitutes are basically harmless but painfully gorgeous. Just that!
